Summary description: coordinate transformation styles for 3d plotting in TikZ
License type: lppl

Announcement text: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The tikz-3dplot package provides straightforward ways to
define three-dimensional coordinate frames through which to
plot in TikZ. The user can specify the orientation of the
main coordinate frame, and use standard TikZ commands and
coordinates to render their tikzfigure. A secondary
coordinate frame is provided to allow rotations and
translations with respect to the main coordinate frame. In
addition, The 3dplot package can also handle plotting
user-specified functions in spherical polar coordinates,
where both the radius and fill color can be expressed as
parametric functions of polar angles.
